Mathematics

The SJCOE Mathematics department provides professional learning services for teachers, instructional leaders, and administrators. The department’s mission is to promote high-quality mathematics instruction in San Joaquin County by providing professional development in the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (CCSS-M) in the areas of curriculum, instruction, and assessment. Services include customized workshops, on-site instructional coaching, lesson study, and the most up-to-date information on the state of mathematics education. In addition, national and regional leaders in the areas of mathematics instruction are invited to share their expertise to develop the capacity of SJCOE math educators.

SJCOE Middle School and High School Math Networks support teachers in expanding their knowledge and understanding of the CCSS-M by building and strengthening inter-district relationships across the region. San Joaquin Math Teachers’ Circle provides opportunities for middle school math teachers to broaden their expertise with problem solving. Elementary and middle schools students excel in solving non-routine problems as part of the annual San Joaquin County Math Tournament.
